Veronica from Fowler, CaThen again, even Alex said it was about their friend who was really tripping the light fantastic (or however that goes) one night and decided to write a song about it.Franz Ferdinand are a Scottish rock band formed in Glasgow in 2002.

It was a private joke among the band and their friends They played it at concerts when they were struggling in Scotland.

Sean from Cork, IrelandIt wasn't meant to end up as a popular mainstream hit.

Paul, MnThis is Franz Ferdinand's best song, except maybe for "The Dark of The Matinee." They are definately the best band since Nirvana. Definitly one of the best bands of time! Thanks for the info! Well, they are a great band whether or not. is very." I almost thought they were gay. I was like "most of thier songs are talking about girls. and listened to this song, and I was so so confused.

Mandy from Calgary, CanadaThank God I came here and looked up what this song ment.

I'm glad I checked on here to see what this song was about. I was in my dad's car and he played it for me. I remember the first time I heard Take Me Out.

Katie from Newcastle-upon-tyne, EnglandI like this band.

Bethan from Somerset, Uk.Reached #17 in the UK singles chart in August 2004.

Amy from Melbourne, AustraliaNME reviewer Anthony Thornton wrote that while Michael 'may appear to be a frank exploration of homoeroticism', really it's just Alex Kapranos 'playing at sexual roles in the same way Morrissey did 20 years ago.' I think the subversion of gender works perfectly to add intrigue to this song - if the object of the song was called Mary for example, it'd still be a great track to dance to, but somehow having the male lead singer singing to Michael adds other layers of meaning.I think ambiguity is a good thing in pop music, because then the lyrics belong to the listener rather than the person who wrote them.' Well said! Amy, Melbourne, Australia Some people have taken a homoerotic interpretation for this song, so take it whichever way you want. Amy from Melbourne, AustraliaAlex has said 'this track's about the dancefloor and characters we knew on the dancefloor.

They certainly achieve that on this track - just try to stop your feet moving! Amy from Melbourne, AustraliaFranz Ferdiand have stated that their aim is to 'make records that girls can dance to'.The band said that they made it for fun,and there's no perversion or any bad references on it.
